How in the world can unbelievers of Christianity ignore the past and current events in the news?

Worldwide terror, threats of nuclear war, rumors of war, worldwide threat of viruses with no cure in sight, worldwide natural disasters are increasing daily, worldwide hunger is increasing at an alarming rate. skeptics and unbelievers are asking “Where is the coming he has promised?”
People that follow Jesus are being persecuted in Arab nations, Israel became a nation in 1948, people will flock to Jerusalem to worship God’s word, Jesus said “My name nor my word shall never be forgotten, Arab countries want to completely demolish Israel and it’s Holy cities.
Unbelievers will respond with “All of the things I have mentioned have been happening since the beginning of time”
And my response is this: Show me where natural disasters and rumors of war occured almost daily in the days of Jesus. Show me where Israel was a united nation in 33a.d, viruses were spreading like wildfire and the most important..
Show me where skeptics asked “Where is the coming he has promised?”
may I give you an advice, mate? change channel we’re deaf here
maranatha come Lord
agree
Why do you think Jesus was killed if he lived in such a peacefull time.
The israel thing makes no sense.
viruses were everywhere, they had no cure for leprosy till 1940.
What is your question? I really think if you emailed me we could come up with some arguments based on facts, but at present you seem to be helping the atheist cause more than the fundie one…sorry.
Right on the money I am with you ! For skeptics read the book of Revelations in the BIBLE , if your not too afraid of being proven wrong!!!!!!!!
Are you the same guy who holds up the religious signs while handing out pamplets on the street? If the world is coming to an end today, then I will admit your on to something, in the meantime, shut up.
Sensational isn’t it. The wonders of modern electronic news gathering without which you would know very little.
GET A GRIP.
Hey, did you ever hear of the Middle Ages? That should answer most of your questions.
By the way it’s non-believers. I don’t think un-believers is a word. In order to un-believe, you would have had to believe in the first place.
I just want to coment about “People that follow Jesus are being persecuted in Arab nations”.
my dear, arab christians have more rights than arab muslems even though they r less than 5%, execluding the case in Iraq, where all minorities are threatened because of instability
Apparently, you haven’t been watching some of the programs about YOUR religion on the History Channel or other channels out that could answer all your questions and then some.
Oh, and in case you forgot – Christianity and the followers of it have killed more people in the name of Christ (who, if you read was opposed to killing) than any other religion out there! Explain THAT!
Sad that this asker uses Yahoo Answers to missionize.

My guess is that most people don’t believe in Bible prophecy. While the Bible may have predicted a few events in ancient history, The poetry of Nostrodamus has made more accurate predictions about more modern times, and most people believe that the predictions only came true because they have been interpreted as something Nostrodamus told us about.
Christians need to prove something, which they can do by making a Prediction about a specific event that will occur within a few months, that could not be predicted with out reading the Bible.
the sky is falling…
I agree its coming true but for those who dont read the Bible they cannot possibly know what its says and therefore do not know its coming true. Heres what my preacher said is proof of the Bible in 1.It has been proved archealogy and scientififcally correct for instance the Bible mentions the world is round way before it was discovered.2Full filled prophecies and prophecies still beingn full filled.Theres more reasons but just thought I would mention thos esince they fit with your question.
why in the world don’t christians take credit for all the ills of the world.
Why has the asker ignored 2000 years of Christian anti-Semitism?
The Arab states are acting a downright discrimination policy against Palestinians, preventing them with all means to achieve any sort of integration in the Arab countries (the same ones from where the Palestinians’ grandparents emigrated to the Holy Land). Iraq and Syria were the most appropriate lands for resettlement of the so-called Palestinian refugees. Between 1948 and 1951, more than 120,000 Jews left Iraq to settle in Israel, leaving all of their goods and homes behind them. Most of them were businessmen and artisans, and many were wealthy. Their departure created a large gap in Iraq’s economy; in some fields, such as transport, banking and wholesale trades, it reached serious proportions, and there was also a dearth of white collar workers and professional men. Salah Jabr, former dictator of Iraq recognized that «the emigration of 120,000 Jews from Iraq to Israel is beneficial to Iraq and to the Palestinian Arabs because it makes possible the entry into Iraq of a similar number of Arab refugees and their occupation of the Jewish houses there». Nevertheless, Palestinians in Iraq have been “allowed to live in the country but not to assume Iraqi nationality”, despite the fact that the country needs manpower and “is encouraging Arab nationals to work and live there by granting them citizenship, with the exception of Palestinians”.
Syria was also almost a desert in the early fifties and a very suitable land to give home to the “refugees”, not only those already dwelling in Syria but also those in Lebanon and Jordan. In 1949 a newspaper editorial from Damascus stated that «Syria needs not only 100,000 refugees, but five million to work the lands and make them fruitful». Indeed, two years later the Syrian government officially requested that half a million Egyptian agricultural workers be permitted to emigrate to Syria in order to help develop Syrian land which would be transferred to them as their property. The responsible Egyptian authorities have rejected this request on the grounds that Egyptian agriculture is in need of labour as well. Syria was offering land rent free to anyone willing to settle there. It even announced a committee to study would-be settlers’ applications. In fact, Syrian authorities began the experiment by moving 25,000 of the refugees in Syria into areas of potential development in the northern parts of the country, but the rigid Arab League position against permanent resettlement prevailed. Palestinians in Syria are still regarded as “refugees” and discriminated as such. The situation in all the remaining Arab states is the same: even though the great majority of the so-called Palestinian refugees has now left the camps for a better life as immigrant workers, they are being denied citizenship in the Arab countries to which they had moved. Regardless of their good behaviour and the many years they are living there, they are still discriminated and denied full integration in society. They must be kept as “refugees” forever, until they may occupy the Land of Israel once that Jews have been expelled or annihilated, that is the ultimate aim of the Arab League policy. Of curse, they would never achieve in doing so, as every time that the Arabs attacked Israel, the Arabs have undergone a shameful defeat.
The current myth is that these Arabs were long established in “Palestine”, until the Jews came and “displaced” them. The fact is, that recent Arab immigration into the Land of Israel displaced the Jews. That the massive increase in Arab population was very recent is attested by the ruling of the United Nations: That any Arab who had lived in the Holy Land for two years and then left in 1948 qualifies as a “Palestinian refugee”.
